Super excited for this release, thankyou for your hard work!
I am interested, how does the Upscale process compare to the real 4K releases regarding the process followed?
Level of Detail is as good if not better than the 4k-Release (Mainly because there is no DNR applied). You might say that the 4k-Bluray looks sharper but that’s only because PJ and his team added digital sharpness on the official release. The Version from DrDre looks more natural imo.
Color grading comes down to taste. The 4k-Bluray might be more neutral but I don’t know if you even want that in a fantasy movie ^^ Either way: This Upscale my favorite version of the Movie and the one I will keep on watching.
I might be editing the movies and remove some scenes from the extended cut which I don’t like.
